Yarn for Wicked
YAY! The pattern is up and I just got my yarn all ready to go - I'm WAY excited about knitting this one!!
I dyed yarn I ordered from knitpicks - I think it's the bare version of swish superwash. I know the pick is fuzzy, but it's a tad bit variegated, with some lighter & darker spots.
Time to get swatching!

It is a beautiful color...
Looks fantastic :) love the colour.
yay - I dyed some knit picks swish superwash too - did you use kool aid? you're looks much more consistent than mine, I'm thinking I may need to dye it again after I knit with it.
(I don't have pictures of it up yet)
I used jacquard dyes - I was really unhappy with the first go-round of color it was sort of a dark greyish mauve color, so I overdyed it with some true red. The whiteish spots soaked up more red than the rest, so it has good color coverage with some variation and I'm really happy with that result.
